Statement a is true. The intersection of SMC and MR is always best, unless it results in a loss that exceeds the firms total fixed costs, in which case it is better to shut down and produce nothing. To find the price a price-setter must set, we always look at the point on its demand curve at the output it wishes to sell.

A The firm's SMC and MR curves intersect at an output of 100, and the point on its demand curve at this output is at £10

B The firm's SMC and MR curves intersect at an output of 100, and the point on its MR curve at this output is at £10.

C The firm's SMC and AR curves intersect at an output of 100, and the point on its MR curve at this output is at £10.

D The firm's SMC and AR curves intersect at an output of 100, and the point on its AR curve at this output is at £10.

E All of the above
